On November 9, 1993, one of Mostar's cultural treasures became a casualty of war. The Old Bridge in Mostar, built in 1566 during the Ottoman Empire, was destroyed by shells fired by Croatian gunners amid fierce fighting with Bosnian Muslims. After the war, the bridge was rebuilt, using many of the same limestone blocks that were salvaged from the river. The reopening of the bridge by Prince Charles in 2004 was symbolic and a sign that life was slowly returning to normal, as well as being testament to the courage and persistence of the city’s inhabitants. UNESCO added the bridge to their World Heritage list in 2005. The Bulevar street runs from the north to the south of the city. During the war it used to be the frontline between Bosnians and Croats. Today it’s the heart of the city and home of the beautiful Mostar city hall.

Avoid if you care about the truth
This museum left me reeling, not just because of the subject matter (I lived through this war and remember it all too well), but also because of the enormous amount of half-truths and misleading information that heavily favors one side in the conflict and utterly demonizes the other. The museum does not present the truth. This is propaganda, so be careful when going there (if you must), and take every single statement and film frame with an enormous mountain of salt. And ask yourself, what would a former east-Mostar war lord want to put in his museum: the truth? Hardly.

Go there if you want to ruin your trip and like being scammed
Stay away! Different names: war photo exhibition, war museum. Located just before the Mostar bridge, or after depending on your direction. Owner extorts money and will not allow you to leave until you pay extra. He is Highly aggressive and rude
via Tripadvisor
Very impressive tour
We took a really impressive tour of Mostar through the most important war memories. We visited also Blagaj, I reccomend this place because is very particular. Sanja is a kind guide and really prepared. She's brilliant and friendly. With her you're in good hands

Great walking tour of Mostar
Sanja took us on the very interesting war tour, but also took the time to talk about the very interesting history of Mostar, as well as what it is like growing up in this beautiful city.

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
War Photo Exhibition Tour in Mostar: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mostar.
How much does War Photo Exhibition Tour in Mostar cost?
+
Prices start at $24 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mostar usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does War Photo Exhibition Tour in Mostar take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mostar is not rushed.
Is War Photo Exhibition Tour in Mostar worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mostar, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule War Photo Exhibition Tour in Mostar?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is War Photo Exhibition Tour in Mostar suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book War Photo Exhibition Tour in Mostar?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mostar can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mostar and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does War Photo Exhibition Tour in Mostar start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mostar within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mostar?
+
On Outty we rank every Mostar experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Herzegovina Day Tour from Mostar: Blagaj, Pocitej, Kravice falls (Join Us! :D), Discover Herzegovina Day Tour from Mostar: Kravice Waterfalls, Blagaj, Počitelj, Break-up of Yugoslavia & The War in Mostar: Life Under Siege. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mostar?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mostar?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
